11 Months Old

Wednesday, December 31, 2014

Havey girl,

Happy 11 months precious girl! Two weeks ago you really started to get the hang of this walking thing and now you are walking more than you crawl. You even try to run sometimes which turns in to a wobble then fall. You imitate so much these days and love to click your tongue like daddy. You celebrated Christmas a few weeks early with your grandaddy, nonna, uncles and aunt. You were spoiled rotten with all sorts of new toys and lots of attention. You especially love playing your little piano. You are busy ALL day long. You spend most of your days exploring and getting in to things you aren't supposed to. You found an old car phone charger and carry it around the house with you. You are also thrilled that it's one cord we actually let you chew on (PSA: don't worry we keep a close eye on the cord!). You are eating new foods everyday and still haven't turned anything down. Saturday and Sunday mornings we love to spend time snuggling with you in our bed. Most nights after you are asleep, daddy and I talk about how much we love you and want to wake you up because we miss you. You still have no stranger danger and will smile and flirt with anyone who looks your way. You hate shoes and socks and take them off immediately when we put them on. This month you met Santa and were gazing into to his eyes trying to grab his beard by the end of it. It was hilarious! You love fisher price little people and carry them around the house with you and gnaw on their heads. You light up and squeal when daddy comes home from work in the evenings. You prefer mommy when you are upset or want to cuddle. Your first Christmas was so nice and you were more interested in eating the wrapping paper than opening presents. We can't believe you will be 12 months in one month. What a wonderful year it's been watching you grow and falling more in love with you each passing day!

xoxo, Mommy and Daddy

Outakes...

These pictures are getting much harder these days!

She made this serious very uninterested faces for the first 40 pictures...

Finally after mommy made an absolute fool of herself trying to get you to smile, I used a light up toy to tickle you then jumped back to capture the smile... Exhausting.
